On 1 September 2007, at the Norwegian Comedy Awards, Antonsen was awarded the Male Comedian of the Year. He started his speech by saying that the last time he won an award, his mother told him that he didn't thank people properly, and that he was going to do better this time. He paused for a couple of seconds before shouting out "Damnit! Didn't work this time either." In 2010, he briefly appeared at the Eurovision Song Contest 2010 in Oslo. In 2012 he starred as King Arthur in the highly successful Norwegian staging of Spamalot, at Folketeatret in Oslo. Antonsen has a close relationship with his grandfather Erik Meneilly.
